Familiar with a decent number of these from a greatest hits video frequently playing in a former retail job. I do like the hits like Monday Monday and California Dreamin'. Solid record.

I like this. Especially liked Yo Yo. Sometimes it made me want to dance and sometimes it was chill. An enjoyable experience.

Definitely found this a fun listen! I didn't like every song, I didn't vibe with Telegram Sam for instance. I quite liked Mystic Lady. Overall I liked it.

This is enjoyable. I liked it.

For me this is the epitome of "yeah that was fine" and I am unlikely to really remember it.

I did not enjoy this. Some of the electronic noises used are pretty shrill which I didn't like. And the repetitive lyrics are not my jam.

It's experimental and weird but not in a totally bad way. I can't say I loved it, but it was certainly interesting.

I really like British rap, grime especially. I was into this.

I've always liked the cover of this. Ugh at the first track, pick a different phrase. But overall fairly funky, not a terrible listen.

I found this strangely compelling. I enjoyed it.

I think this is pretty decent. I haven't listened to much of the Smiths and I'm pretty alright with doing so now.

Pretty nice listen. Good background music mostly, very chill.

I'm not a punk fan generally, and while this didn't totally change that, I will say it helped push me a little further towards punk enjoyment. I liked the first song or two, then kinda got bored. But there is actual some melody in some of the instrumentation here which is nice.

Not sure why but I didn't expect to like this. I didn't totally love it but I did like it overall.

I liked this! Very cool and some really nice instrumentation here.

Mixed. Leaning dislike. I felt some hope at the start but just didn't connect with it.

I found this ok. It had to my taste way too many non-song tracks. The songs are decent and I like the concept too, but I don't find this very satisfying.

I'm not usually a fan of live albums, but this captures the energy of the show well and sounds remarkably good. It's a fun record.

It's groovy! It remains to be seen how this compares to others like Purple Rain (been a while since I listened) but my suspicion is that I prefer that one. Still, a good album.

You can clearly see that this is the second side of Kid A, same weirdness. I found it slightly less approachable, but still enjoyable.
